June 27 - FREAKING OUT



Recommended Posts

Any other June 27 sleevers freaking the f out?? I didn't have to be on a special diet at all except for Clear liquids the day before surgery. I'm freaking out over everything. IV, maybe catheter, incisions, being naked, moving from the bed to the table, standing, putting pants on, putting undies on, doing anything.

At the gate. Waiting for the firing of the starter's pistol...!!

Then:

Off you go! :)

Try to relax. You've worked hard to get this far. Now let the your team do theirs.

There'll be plenty for you to do after your surgery.

For now? Rest, my friend.

You do this the same way you do anything new. One step at a time. You'll have a whole team supporting you in the hospital. Go with it and you'll be fine.

Why can't you have Protein supplements?

I'm up Monday too. I'm worried about all that stuff and a lot more. But I'm more worried about spending my life in this fat suit.

I agree!

Not sure why no Protein. They said clear liquid only

I haven't been overweight my whole life, so I literally feel like I've been wearing a fat suit for the past 10 years. I believe it's karma for making fun of overweight people when I was young and stupid. Never again!!

I'm the 28th of June, and your not alone.......Excited to get it over and done and my emotions are all over the place too..I'm very cranky from being on day 5 of my liquid diet, but I've lost 12 lbs....Cleaning house, etc. I'm more worried about taking my first sip after surgery than the surgery itself.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
